rotate object in the about the x or y plane

[barthmv]

I recently imported a 3d DXF file of a refrigerator and the object was placed in my plan in the wrong orientation. I would like to rotate the object 90 degrees about the x or y plane. Is this possible to do in HD pro 9? I seem to be able to rotate it only about the Z axis.

No, you cannot rotate the object as you want to in Pro, only in Chief Architect X2.

However, you should be able to open the object in SketchUp or another 3D program, make the desired rotation (or change the coordinate system for the object), then bring it back into Pro.

That's pretty much the same conclusion I came up with before I submitted the question. I use Unigraphics, I will move the object in that and then save it as a DXF. Thanks for the info, I was hoping I was missing something that would let me do it in Pro.

Thanks again
